Presenting The James C Walkley Estate, a historic grand Manor ca.1860, superbly remodeled 2022. Nothing compares. The ultimate in country living. From the moment you enter the otherworldly grounds via a sweeping circular drive, you will be awestruck by the depth and breadth of this 9.69 acre property. The stately home that greets you is privately set on a gently rolling tableau worthy of an impressionist painting. From the rear of the property the CT River comes into view. The house is at once impressive and understated. A slate roof is graced by dual chimneys. The columned front entry portico whispers of a time when visitors arrived by carriage. Stepping inside through original double doors find yourself in a 35' entry hall. Ceilings are 13' on the main level and 11' on the second. Fourteen remodeled rooms, five bedrooms, five full plus two half-baths, Chef's kitchen w/Wolf/Subzero/Cove appliances, butler's pantry, office, study, living and family rooms, formal dining room, plus eight marble-surround gas fireplaces combine to create a dream family retreat. A dramatic sunroom with marble radiant-heated flooring is perfect for informal dining and relaxation. Step outdoors to the bluestone patio, or enjoy the 18x48 heated salt water, gunite pool. Dual propane boilers, dual 80 gallon indirect hot water tanks, new AC, generator, underground utilities, copper gutters. Enjoy nearby historic Haddam, the charming towns of Chester, Essex, Old Saybrook and the CT Shoreline. The best!
